At the moment, it’s looking like 2016 is going to be a great year in terms of new albums, with a handful of huge bangers already out there and many more undoubted hits confirmed to be hitting out ears in the next few months. It’s also important to look back every so often, and it just turns out that a decade ago in 2006 was a great year for albums too.

Of course there are hundreds, but we filtered together 50 great albums that turn 10-years-old this year to remember those modern classics, accompanied with streams to bring ourselves a massive hit of euphoric nostalgia.

NOTE: These albums may bring intense levels and high frequencies of smiles, jumping, involuntary head nodding/banging and limb movements, and uncontrollable happiness.

Nottingham’s annual indoor Hit The Deck Festival have announced the first wave of bands for next years event, as well as adding an extra date in Bristol for the first time ever. A full list of all acts confirmed for next year thus far are listed below, along with a festival poster and additional event information:

I often find myself having the same conversation at gigs;
Stranger: So what bands are you into?
Me: Well, it varies, I like X, Y, Z. Oh, and Bleeding Through.
Stranger: Who?
Me: You know, that band with the really hot keyboardist? Marta Peterson.
Stranger: Oh yeah!

However, I should point out that Bleeding Through are so much more. Considering that they have been going since 1999, they are still going strong and haven’t released a bad album to date.

Joining onto 2010’s Never Say Die! tour as one of the artist with the longest career on the line-up, Californian metalcore act Bleeding Through have a respected history and back catalogue, and of course a pretty dedicated fanbase to boot. During the Manchester (and also final UK) date of the tour, we decided to catch up with the band’s guitarist Dave Nassie to talk about a couple of different things, including his favourite band to watch on the tour, the band’s plans for 2011, and how the band usually go about writing a song…

Sponsored and supported by Imperial Clothing, the European Never Say Die! tour is one of the year’s most anticipated annual heavy music tours, at least in the UK anyway. 2010 sees one of the tour’s best line-ups so far, covering a range of genres like deathcore, metalcore, hardcore, and a few other -cores here and there. With seven bands across just a few short hours, its a lot of enjoyable intensity to take in.
